What is Working Class Round-Up?
Working Class Round-Up is the podcast that puts a spotlight on the contractors, owner-operators, and first-generation entrepreneurs who built their businesses from the ground up — without the shortcuts.
Episode 3 – Plumbing & Water Damage
A small leak ignored today could mean mold, foundation damage, and a denied insurance claim tomorrow. NATHANIEL HAMMONTREE of Perventure Plumbing breaks down what to watch for — and exactly what your policy will and won't cover.
Episode 4 – Insurance Insider Secrets
Most agents won't tell you how the insurance industry actually works — until it's too late. Jonathan Roberts with Farmers Insurance will. He pulls back the curtain on captive vs. independent agents, why filing that small claim can come back to haunt you, and what every Texas homeowner needs to know about wind and hail deductibles before the next storm.
Episode 5 – Web Design & Story Branding
Most agencies will sell you whatever you'll buy. Purple Cow Brands does one thing — and they do it on purpose. Ben Porter breaks down why the customer should be the hero of every website (not your business), why he builds on Framer instead of WordPress, and where the real risk lives when small businesses start using AI.
